Cholesteric induction power of β-galactose derivatives

Galactose derivatives were explored as chiral dopants, effective for inducing chiral nematic liquid crystal (LC) phases. Galactose bearing O-isopropylidene substituents at the C3 and C4 and butoxybiphenyl substituents at the C2 and C6 positions exhibits a high helical twisting power (HTP) value of ?74.4 μm^?1. Such a high HTP value for the galactose derivative is attributed to (1) linkage of the C3 and C4 carbons with the O-isopropylidene substituent, which places the C2 and C6 substitutes in a skew arrangement at a large angle and (2) enhancement of the affinity with the host nematic LCs by incorporating aromatic substituents at the C2 and C6 positions that are similar to those in the host.     

我国铁矿消费强度与钢铁冶炼及加工业的关系

简要分析了我国改革开放以来铁矿消费强度的阶段性变化特征,建立了铁矿消费强度的增量分解模型,应用国民经济投入产出表中数据,分时段对铁矿消费强度进行了增量分解计算和分析.结果表明,2002年前,资本形成以低于或基本等于GDP的增速增长,钢铁冶炼及加工业的铁矿消耗系数下降,致使铁矿消费强度降低;2002~2010年间,资本形成增速高于GDP增速,钢铁冶炼及加工业产出效益下降、铁矿消耗系数升高,致使铁矿消费强度大幅上升.因此,钢铁冶炼及加工业需要解决的主要矛盾是淘汰过剩的低端产能和推动产品结构升级,降低整个经济的铁矿消费强度,达到产业健康稳定发展的目的.

歪斜安装对组配轴承转子系统动力学特性影响

针对多联组配轴承歪斜安装情况,推导了一个轴承外圈发生绕竖直方向歪斜时滚动轴承的非线性支承力形式,并借助Timoshenko梁轴单元建立了主轴模型,利用打靶法和Floquet理论分析了歪斜对系统全局非线性稳定特性和振动特性的影响。通过与正常安装组配轴承转子系统对比发现:外圈歪斜后系统在大间隙时的低转速区域容易出现倍周期分叉,在高转速区域易表现为伪周期分叉;在小间隙工况时容易获得大范围的周期运动参数区域。同时,歪斜使得系统的一临界峰峰值右移且明显放大,从而导致系统在高转速区域的水平方向振动明显增大。研究结果表明,掌握且合理利用轴承歪斜后的非均匀间隙特性,有助于改善系统运行的动力特性。     

Protein-Mediated Suppression of Rolling Circle Amplification for Biosensing with an Aptamer-Containing DNA Primer

We report a method to detect proteins via suppression of rolling circle amplification (RCA) by using an appropriate aptamer as the linear primer (denoted as an aptaprimer) to initiate RCA. In the absence of a protein target, the aptaprimer is free to initiate RCA, which can produce long DNA products that are detected via binding of a fluorescent intercalating dye. Introduction of a target causes the primer region within the aptamer to become unavailable for binding to the circular template, inhibiting RCA. Using SYBR Gold or QuantiFluor dyes as fluorescent probes to bind to the RCA reaction product, it is possible to produce a generic protein-modulated RCA assay system that does not require fluorophore- or biotin-modified DNA species, substantially reducing complexity and cost of reagents. Based on this modulation of RCA, we demonstrate the ability to produce both solution and paper-based assays for rapid and quantitative detection of proteins including platelet derived growth factor and thrombin.     

The maximum number of columns in supersaturated designs with

Cheng and Tang [Biometrika, 88 (2001), pp. 1169–1174] derived an upper bound on the maximum number of columns that can be accommodated in a two‐symbol supersaturated design (SSD) for a given number of rows () and a maximum in absolute value correlation between any two columns (). In particular, they proved that for (mod ) and . However, the only known SSD satisfying this upper bound is when . By utilizing a computer search, we prove that for , and . These results are obtained by proving the nonexistence of certain resolvable incomplete blocks designs. The combinatorial properties of the RIBDs are used to reduce the search space. Our results improve the lower bound for SSDs with rows and columns, for , and . Finally, we show that a skew‐type Hadamard matrix of order can be used to construct an SSD with rows and columns that proves . Hence, we establish for and for all (mod ) such that . Our result also implies that when is a prime power and (mod ). We conjecture that for all and (mod ), where is the maximum number of equiangular lines in with pairwise angle .     

热模拟平面应变条件下的热轧织构研究

以微合金钢为材料,采用光学显微镜和EBSD,研究热模拟平面应变实验条件下再结晶奥氏体和变形奥氏体的织构演变.研究发现,在热模拟平面应变实验的压缩过程中,试样的两个自由端限制了变形区金属的宽向流动,达到了很好的平面应变状态.对于再结晶奥氏体相变工艺,由于相变前奥氏体发生再结晶,无畸变保留,奥氏体分解为仿晶界铁素体、贝氏体和少量的珠光体,织构为{100}011α;对于变形奥氏体相变工艺,未再结晶区的变形促进了铁素体相变,使奥氏体分解为铁素体和珠光体组织,织构为{332}113α和{113}110α.此两种工艺条件下的织构,皆为平面应变条件下的奥氏体相变织构,即热模拟平面应变实验可以达到很好的平面应变状态,可用于研究热轧过程的织构演变.
